fascinating to find out that the Harbor Road area (South Simcoe/Harbor Road) is set to develop a new condo complex (Nahid Harbor Condos). This area (south of the 401) has remained undeveloped for decades. The area has no other developments--grocery stores/restaurants/Big box stores etc, Will be interesting to see if this condo will spur this kind of development
@lisaabbot I have been following your videos very closely. I was looking at Kedron area and didn't see that called out in your video. Is that a good neighborhood?
I only briefly mentioned Kedron in the video as an alternative to the Windfields area. Great area, lots of new development happening, prices for the detached homes are usually $1M - $1.3M and you can find some brand new 3 storey townhomes that sell below $800,000. We have clients that have lived there for many years and they love it.
Hey , this is very useful video . I am actually moving to Oshawa and looking for a house near Oshawa GO . How safe is the Bloor Street West area? Any suggestions. Thanks in advance.
It's not an area I would typically recommend but it will depend on your personal situation. Feel free to give me a call if you'd like to discuss areas. 289-600-5502
It's a very convenient location because you have the 401, GO Station, Oshawa Centre and plenty of other shopping all within 5 minutes, lots within walking distance. There's primarily smaller detached homes, semi-detached homes, and some townhouses so the prices are more on the affordable end. The only areas I'm not a big fan of are behind the Oshawa Centre and some of the areas on the east side of Park Road.
Definitely one of the most sought after areas in Oshawa and a fantastic neighbourhood. It wasn't included in this video because I was taking affordability into consideration and that area commands a premium.
All the areas you said to stay away from is public housing areas . Find that judgmental . But you say Eastda and Donavan is a area to consider. I Not trying to be rude but Eastdale collegiate is one of the worst high school and in that area is where the hole family was killed back in sept 2020 . Every area in every city have good a bad .Adelaide and simcoe a girl was stabbed to to death March of 2023 . It’s not where you live it’s how you live ..The bank at Wilson and Taunton and older lady was robbed at the bank machine and that area is a good area . Doesn’t matter it’s every where theses days ..
Had nothing to do with public or low-income housing if you watched the video and listened to what I said, and using anecdotal evidence and one-off tragedy's is not going to be the information I'm basing my videos off of. These videos are to help people who are unfamiliar with the areas get a sense of these different communities before they move into them.
